Superior sensing performance of multi-walled carbon nanotube-based electrodes to detect unconjugated bilirubin

Abstract: The direct electrochemical behaviour of bilirubin in the physio-pathological concentration range and at physiological pH was investigated by cyclic voltammetry. Nanostructured electrodes with a thin film of multi-walled carbon nanotubes exhibited a higher sensing performance than bare electrodes. The detection limit obtained with nanostructured electrodes (4.2 ± 0.1 μM) allows the detection of both normal and pathological levels of bilirubin. Due to its sparse solubility in aqueous solvents, in human fluids bi… Show more

“…A clear change in the morphology observed after electrochemical reduction suggests a successful reduction of -COOH, -OH, and oxygen functional groups. It is also evident from the cyclic voltammograms that are applied on the GO-SPE before and after electrochemical reduction ( Figure 3 A) that the reduction peak observed at −0.5 V (Vs. Ag/AgCl) corresponds to the electrochemical reduction of GO [ 25 ]. Furthermore, a stable redox peaks around +0.2 V was observed after 500 cycles.…”

“…Electrodes that are modified with nanomaterials, such as metal nanoparticles [ 19 ], nanostructural conducting polymers (molecularly imprinted polymer) [ 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 ], carbon nanotubes [ 24 , 25 ], graphene, and their composites [ 26 , 27 ] have been reported as BR sensors. Those nanomaterials are well known for their efficiency to improve the electrocatalytic performance of the sensors by increasing the effective surface area.…”

“…Using DPV and the developed sensor (HIV-p24/CTS/MWCNT/GCE), a low limit of detection (0.083 pg cm −3 ), good selectivity, repeatability, reproducibility, stability, and accuracy were reached for the proposed electroanalysis; validation was performed by comparative studies with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The outstanding ability of MWCNT-based electrochemical sensors to simulate redox reactions that occur in vivo has also been demonstrated with the electroanalysis of hemoglobin [43], amino acids [44], cholesterol [45], bilirubin [46], neurotransmitters, and related compounds [47][48][49], and even microorganisms [50], in mammalian fluid samples, achieving great results and contributing to the early diagnosis and treatment of several related diseases.…”

“…Electrochemical sensors have ease, rapidity and sensitivity in comparison with other techniques and often do not need to complex pre-treatment of samples. There are three basic approaches in these methods: the first one is the direct oxidation of bilirubin at the electrode surface [18][19][20][21][22][23]. The second one is an enzymatic method that utilizes the bilirubin oxidase enzyme for electrochemical measurement of BR.…”
